Can Any Surgeon Inject Restylane on Nose Bridge?

Non-surgical Rhinoplasty Restylane in Nose
Hi rossanamendoza,
First, be very careful with any injections into the nose. The nose is very susceptible to color changes, discoloration, swelling, blood flow, pain, numbness, and other potential complications with inappropriate injections into the nose.
There isn't a filler on the market currently that is FDA approved for injection into the nose. Everything is being used off-label. Fillers should never be placed into the tip of the nose, since complications may more likely...

Experience matters in non surgical nose reshaping or rhinoplasty
Although it is not technically difficult to inject Restylane into the nose, there is a high degree of importance attributed to aesthetic judgement and experience. I would suggest you go to a board certified plastic surgeon who is qualified to perform the procedure and assess your nasal profile.

Someone with Experience
More and more physicians who inject Restylane are learning how to inject Restylane into the nose. However, at this point I would steer you to someone who has a good deal of experience in this procedure. Not done properly, you might need constant adjustments so it would be smart to go to someone who gets it right the first time.
My personal preferences would be a facial plastic surgeon or en ENT physician who has become a board certilfied plastic surgeon.

Non-surgical rhinoplasty
The use of fillers for non-surgical rhinoplasty has been increasing. The use of longer lasting product such as Radiesse may be a better choice for lengthening your nose. A surgeon who performs surgical rhinoplasty also is probably your best choice because he/she may have a better understanding of the aesthetics of rhinoplasty.
